Let’s now learn the piano fingerings for the A flat minor scale. The sixth note of the major scale becomes the root note of its relative minor. A natural minor scale/key consists of the same notes as its relative major. The relative major key for the key of Ab minor is Cb major. Finally, the last whole step returns us to Ab. Let’s form the A flat minor scale with this formula. “W” stands for whole step and “H” stands for half step. There’s a formula for forming natural minor scales using whole steps and half steps. How about the scale degrees? They are as follows: Here’s the A flat natural minor scale on the bass clef. Here’s the A flat natural minor scale on the treble clef. Here’s a diagram of the A flat minor scale on piano/keyboard. Perfect 8th – The 8th note of the A-flat natural minor scale is Ab.Minor 7th – The 7th note of the scale is Gb.Minor 6th – The 6th note of the scale is Fb.Perfect 5th – The 5th note of the scale is Eb.Perfect 4th – The 4th note of the scale is Db.Minor 3rd – The 3rd note of the scale is Cb.Major 2nd – The 2nd note of the scale is Bb.Tonic – The 1st note of the A-flat natural minor scale is Ab.Let’s take a look at the intervals of the Ab minor scale. The notes of the A flat natural minor scale are Ab, Bb, Cb, Db, Eb, Fb and Gb. To learn more about this scale and others, check out my course, Learn Scales & Music Theory & Give Yourself An Upper Hand. The notes of the G sharp natural minor scale are G#, A#, B, C#, D#, E, F#, G#. The only difference is the names of the notes. On piano, the same keys are used to play the two scales. We will learn the notes, intervals and scale degrees of the A flat minor scale (natural, melodic and harmonic) on the piano, treble and bass clef.Ī flat is an enharmonic of G sharp. We will take a look at all three of them here. The three types of minor scales are the natural, melodic and harmonic minor scales. In this lesson, we will learn how to play the A flat minor scale.
